Re: PIPO32 - Monster ISU :)

FrSky standard has no up-link yes ...but with Pxx I think this can be possible ....how hard can it be to add ? Any way I like the direction where we start to build/make our own stuff to suit our own needs ...Many years ago if you wanted a RC transmitter you had to build it yourself, or pay someone a...

Re: PIPO32 - Monster ISU :)

you exposed my plot to make the best board for my Micro quad's .... :( One thing I know is it is hard to find any thing between 3a and 10a ...or they are over priced. But yes I agree on bigger stuff you want separate ESC's if one fails it can be replaced easy (hence why projects combing esc's into o...

Re: PIPO32 - Monster ISU :)

The problem with adding ESC is size ...I use every thing from 3amp to 40amp depending on what I build ...also you have then tri,quad,hex,octo y6 y8 ....it becomes a problem, but a nice quad 20a esc add on board could work. For me I am more interested in Rx build in the "connections" board,...

There is a earth at 180° and it will case a short. Also you can not test for a short on the connector once done with a standard DVM

Re: How to set up 16ch Tx with er9x!

I have seen this myself using ppm on Naze32 with 8ch ...however if you reduce the 100% to something like 75% it will work, but still this is a concern for me. I have posted somewhere else about his, now I know where the fault is.

Re: 9x and Fr-Sky RX

the one above, but you have to bring the telemetry in to the TX somewhere. or this one, can be build into the TX and is more fun if you are into DIY electronics

Re: New sticks for the 9x

Got them last night, sadly it is not a drop in replacement, but the good news is with a bit of work on the case they do fit. The fixing holes are off. I have not conected it to a 9x board yet so don't know there, but will come back. I may opt for making myself a custom case for the ersky9x using the...

Re: Antenna patch

on the receiver there is only one "earth" but on the transmitter there is 3 holes, 2 is earth (one on either side), and one is the centre "RF" Sorry I don't have a un-modded standard TX to take a picture.

Re: PIPO32 - Monster ISU :)

And I stole the idea from somewhere else :D It works for me and if you are careful then you won't break the board. On that, the connection board, can it be used also a power distribution board ? I'm sure there is space for a large connection to ground and B+ and maybe even a xt60 (wishful-thinking I...

you can even get the telemetry module and use it with the non telemetry rx's, and have the capability to add telemetry if you want.

Re: Er9x - Tx reseting

Are you tapping 5v from the main board, if so try tapping it from the switch board (there is a 5v reg see speaker mod drawing showing this)
you are probably pulling the 5v reg into limit and then get a reset.
